My tips are just some cheap ones from an online exhaust shop. They cost me about $50 posted so real cheap but they look pretty good and are real loud on WOT being single walled, they're like megaphones!

Hows the fitment of the 42DD downpipe? I wonder if 42DD have revised the design in the last few years (doubt it but who knows), because it left a lot to be desired when i had one.
I cant fault the sound though - with the cat and resonator it sounded great.Comment

42DD Downpipe
I've had no fitment issues at all. I had a crack in the resonator baffle and they sent a replacement out from America under warranty. More than happy with the product and service. The sound is the best I have heard from a aftermarket downpipe.Last edited by prh1973; 27-01-2016, 08:17 PM.Comment

Hey guys,
looking to get a 42DD downpipe for my Mk6 GTI and came across this. Do you guys have the alum/steel pipes or stainless?
I was looking at this same setup, resonated with cat, into stock cat-back - just not sure of material type.

I have the aluminised steel dp on my 8L S3, been on about 4 years. Doesn't look like new any more but far from dead.Originally posted by denno201 View PostComment

No need for a resonated downpipe on a Mk6 GTI as they have a resonator built into the catback section from factory (unlike the R which does not). So save yourself the cash and get a non-resonated downpipe for your GTI. I have the EuroJet downpipe on my MK6 GTI and the fitment is perfect - its about 5 years old now and has never had a single issue nor has it needed to be adjusted etc etc.Originally posted by denno201 View Post
This is not my car, but you can see some pics of the EuroJet downpipe here: http://www.vwwatercooled.com/forums/...led-56947.html
The SPM/EuroJet downpipe is the best fitting downpipe for the Mk6 GTI, with the CTS close behind. I would never buy another 42DD downpipe after the issues i had with mine. It was rubbish.Last edited by Lucas_R; 06-06-2016, 04:57 PM.Comment

I had no issues with my pipe, but will echo Lucas' sentiment about going non-resonated - it added a touch extra growl under heavy acceleration but otherwise barely noticeable.
